A pretty good period drama with a touch of Whodunit? about it similar to an Agatha Christie film. Great largely all English cast, location, costumes. A lot of effort went into the production of the movie, noticeable in the attention to every detail. Has a slight twist as you would expect but may be a bit too slow for some.

I enjoyed reading other books by this author but this one felt like the book started in the middle of a story without a lot of needed backstory. I knew the characters from previous books but I didn't read the one just before this.
The mystery was enjoyable but I would have enjoyed it more if I had read the book just before this one.

A remake that people should watch
Dawn of the dead, was a good remake of the original film. Zack snyder makes his film debut in directing with this film and he did a good job. James gunn wrote the screenolay and he did a good job. Back in 2004 these two were new in hollywood, now look at them. I liked this film lot.

Admittedly I read this quite a few years ago but from what I can remember it was a wonderfully poignant story of grief and family. It's honest about the twists and turns grief will take you, good and bad, it's really a breath of fresh air. It clearly has a lot of heart in it, which as an avid reader and performer I really appreciate.

Gunslinger part 1
It is a lot of setting up the world and the characters' motivations and desires. Roland doesn't feel like he’s there in the world. I am looking forward to seeing where the story takes us in the next books. Excited to read on.

Jessica - Where the Book Ends (15 KP) rated Guilty Pleasures (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #1) in Books

This book was a good first book to a series. It starts off quite slow and there are a lot of characters that get thrown at you all at once. The author seems to jump from one thought to another without completing the first one. It takes some getting used to. Overall not a bad book. The series is one i will continue reading.

Edge of your seat let down
I had to watch this movie twice to make sure I read not missing something. It has a lot of twists and turns but in the end you are left with questions. I hope there is a prequel and a sequel.....I feel it would take both to answer all my questions.

Ducklady (1174 KP) rated Daddy's Home 2 (2017) in Movies

Love all the actors in this movie and its a fairly funny movie in parts, but a lot of the comedy is drawn out. It's a movie that is easy to have on in the background while you are doing something else, but it didn't capture my attention fully. It was OK, worth a watch as a kinda rubbish but kinda funny Christmas movie.

I always seem to mix this up with Blue Velvet for some reason?
A pretty decent thriller with a lot of well known faces. It's about a drifter making out to be a hitman, but things go from strange to worse when he finds out who the client is and and the real hitman shows up. Worth a look next time it comes on TV.
